Trump Disappoints MAGA Base, Endorses Britt Over Brooks in Alabama Run-off
Donald Trump sides with establishment candidate over MAGA ally Mo Brooks over what seems to be a personal grievance about the 2020 election
Former President Donald Trump has made an unexpected endorsement in the upcoming run-off election for the GOP nomination for Senate in Alabama. Katie Britt, who won nearly 50% of the vote in the recent primary, received the coveted endorsement of the former president. Her challenger, Mo Brooks, previously had the support of the 45th President, who later pulled his endorsement.
The endorsement of Britt is a rather curious one to many of Trump’s most fervent supporters. Brooks is more closely aligned with the populist “MAGA” agenda than is Britt, who also has support from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and is also tied to several “Never Trumpers.”
